Cloud Peak Scenery
Chapter 186 *Xiuchun Blade 1* Is a Complete Success
Film critic Xiao Hu Ge, as a professional in the field, originally wouldn't pay special attention to movies that haven't been released yet.
But coincidentally, Lu Xuan's recent film has been trending.
Faced with so much skepticism, Xiao Hu Ge joined in.
"Everyone, I've made a detailed video analyzing, with evidence, what kind of movie *Xiu Chun Dao 1* is."
"Also, I want to refute some people's claims that the costumes, makeup, and props in *Xiu Chun Dao 1* do not conform to the history of that time! They absolutely do!"
In the video.
"First of all, let's talk about the clothing issue that you mentioned. We must know that the historical background at that time was the Ming Dynasty. What was emphasized in that dynasty was that after the founding of the country, they immediately restored the Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) etiquette and even had a set of special crown and clothing systems."
"For example, the Jinyi Wei (the Embroidered Uniform Guard) in the play are the emperor's confidants and are directly responsible to the emperor. Their biggest feature is that they hold the xiuchun dao and wear feiyu fu (flying fish robes). The feiyu fu is generally..."
Throughout the entire video, Xiao Hu Ge spoke with reason and evidence, explaining the entire costume, makeup, and props for nearly an hour.
He knew the historical and cultural background like the back of his hand.
This made a group of haters want to criticize, but they couldn't find any loopholes.
So, they took a different approach.
"But there's a problem with the fighting in here. How can people possibly fly over walls?"
"That's right. Since you said it conforms to history, then people should also conform to history, instead of messing around like this."
"No matter how powerful the Jinyi Wei are, how powerful can they be!"
Martial arts fans instantly became furious.
What they hated most was someone criticizing the martial arts in their hearts.
"You don't know anything! All you know is to open your mouths and shout. If you don't understand, then shut up!"
"Wuxia (martial arts) stories are originally based on the historical background of the time, with plot adaptations. If that's what you're saying, then the people in the past were much smarter than you, but I don't see you calling them ancestors."
"Just from the tidbits that have been released, Lin Mofan's fight scenes are already very exciting. It's definitely not the kind of fancy empty moves!"
"Yeah, just casually fighting is definitely different from this kind of real fighting."
"Anyway, just looking at the tidbits and stills, I know this movie is definitely a work of conscience. I will definitely watch it!"
"Must watch!"
"Strongly support *Xiu Chun Dao 1*. My wallet is ready. When will filming be completed?"
Many martial arts fans are people who have been working or dormant for many years.
When they suddenly saw someone criticizing their martial arts, they all emerged from who knows where.
The people who originally planned to criticize Lu Xuan were instantly no match for such a huge force.
"They're still babbling about this historically accurate movie, it's really annoying!"
"Do they think they know a lot?"
"Hehe, haven't you noticed that they can't even distinguish between Hanfu and Korean clothing from the Ming Dynasty?"
"What can I say? Some people insist that the father copied the son's."
"Let me just say, this is the feiyu fu that I visited and photographed in the museum."
"Hahaha, brother! You've got a big hammer! You're dropping such a big move, the haters will cry!"
"Hahaha! The haters will say that it must be fake, that you photoshopped it."
"..."
Lu Xuan felt amazed when he saw everyone's comments.
As expected, there are experts among the people.
Especially this Xiao Hu Ge.
More than an hour, full of useful information.
Even if you wanted to find fault, he would turn around and explain why it was like that at the time.
Lu Xuan watched for a long time, thinking that he might have a chance to meet Xiao Hu Ge.
He really wrote well.
Lu Xuan directly forwarded it and said, "You are really too professional!"
"I will definitely support you for being so conscientious!"
Xiao Hu Ge didn't expect that Lu Xuan would actually forward, like, and follow him.
He only felt flattered.
The article that was originally published to criticize Lu Xuan, as well as the bouquets from the water army, were instantly full of flaws.
"I'm suddenly thinking, is the person who wrote this article a fan of Lu Xuan? Every sentence just happens to scold the advantages of *Xiu Chun Dao 1*. I didn't understand the intention and background of this movie."
"Now I understand!"
"Me too. When I first saw this article, I was wondering what you were talking about and what this was."
"Now that I've seen everyone's analysis, I understand. This is helping to promote the movie."
"Does your face hurt?"
"It's not your fault that you don't have culture, but it's not good to show it off."
"Really stupid. The boss hasn't even arrived yet, and Xiao Hu Ge has already overthrown him."
"Everyone, stop talking. If you keep talking, he's going to cry!"
Lu Xuan had high expectations for this film.
Whether it was casting or character arrangement, he was very serious and meticulous.
Even in terms of costumes, makeup, and props, he specially invited many experts and teachers to carefully analyze them before re-producing the costumes.
It can be said that there is no way to criticize the costumes, makeup, and props of this drama.
He hired professionals to guide him.
Even the etiquette was guided by people who specialized in studying the historical background of the time.
How could such a play be bad.
The wuxia he wanted to shoot must be the best!
It must be a stunning and presentable piece!
In an instant, *Xiu Chun Dao 1* became popular before it was released.
Many people were already full of expectations before they even saw the play.
Originally, this play was on the movie expectation list, but because it had not been promoted.
Before today, it had always been ranked ninety-fifth.
But now.
It instantly rushed to number one!
Such a scene was unheard of!
Even those who hired the water army did not expect it.
If they hadn't criticized *Xiu Chun Dao 1*, this movie wouldn't have been known to everyone.
Now it's good.
Because of their operation, *Xiu Chun Dao 1* instantly became completely popular.
A group of people behind the scenes were so angry that they wanted to die.
"What the hell are you guys doing!"
"Now it's good, not only did we not step on them, but we helped them get to number one!"
They spent a lot of money hiring the water army.
As a result, not only did they not accomplish anything, but they also suffered a loss themselves.
"Forget it, forget it, let's be more careful in the future. There are plenty of opportunities. I don't believe this kid won't crash!"
Several directors were in a small private room, exchanging angrily.
They really didn't expect that Lu Xuan's luck would be so good!
But no matter how angry they were, it was useless.
What's done is done, and it's no use regretting it. The only thing to be thankful for is that they weren't exposed.
Lu Xuan finally finished filming *Xiu Chun Dao 1* and successfully wrapped up production.
